Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of analytical forms of color designations in the Bashkir language and the identification of the features of their use in the literary language and folk colloquial speech. The relevance of the research is due to the need to study this group of color designations using the new achievements of linguistic science, namely, the possibility of access to a large volume of texts that contain almost all the lexical richness of the Bashkir language. Corpuses of the Bashkir language were used as such material: the corpus of prose, the corpus of folklore, the corpus of publicism, and other Internet resources. It was revealed that the analytical method in the Bashkir language forms color designations by color tone, saturation, brightness. In the analytical form, the names of color tones of the following nature are used: two spectral colors (qïδɣïlt һary ‘orange’, qïδɣïlt kүk ‘violet’), shades located between the two main spectra (jӓškelt zӓŋgӓr ‘greenish blue’, һarɣïlt jӓšel ‘yellowish green’), shades of spectral, non-spectral and achromatic colors (һarɣïlt körӓn ‘yellowish brown’, sejӓ qïδïl ‘cherry red’). A combination of two or more words also conveys such characteristics as color saturation (qujï qïδïl ‘thick red’, tonoq zӓŋgӓr ‘dull blue’), brightness of tone (aqһïl zӓŋgӓr ‘light blue’, qaraɣusqïl jӓšel ‘dark green’), piebald color (һarï ala ‘yellow piebald’).
